dc.description.abstract | The effects of highly selective mu and delta opioid peptide agonists were determined in two rat models of experimentally-induced convulsions, the flurothyl threshold test and the maximal electroshock test. Intracerebroventricular injections of the mu selective enkephalin DAGO (0.3-2.2 nmol) resulted in a dose-related protection in both seizure models. Pretreatment with a low dose of naloxone (29 nmol) or the irreversible mu antagonist [beta]-FNA (21 nmol), but not the delta opioid antagonist ICI 154,129 (50 nmol), antagonized the anticonvulsant actions of DAGO. Intracerebroventricular injections of the delta selective enkephalin DPDPE (70-140 nmol) also resulted in seizure protection. These effects were selectively antagonized by the delta antagonist ICI 174,864 (2.8 nmol), but not by pretreatment with [beta]-FNA. Thus, using agonists and antagonists highly selective for mu and delta opioid receptors, anticonvulsant actions of enkephalin have been described against chemically- and electrically-induced convulsions in rats. | en_US |
